In this week's contribution to our #HumanRightsFAU series: PhD & research associate Milena Störmer tells us about what inspired her to research human rights.
@fau.de
#HumanRightsFAU Campaign: Contribution by Milena Störmer: " I believe that some things can’t be understood with the mind if they haven’t first been lived with the heart. My time away from my desk moved me deeply and left me with a profound urge to act—a longing for justice and peace. So when I began my PhD, I naturally and immediately felt drawn to the field of human rights.”

#HumanRightsFAU Campaign: Contribution by Husam Al-Eryani: " “I was inspired to study human rights by the immense scale of violations committed by parties to the conflict in Yemen. I made a personal commitment to ensure that the voices of victims and their families are heard and not forgotten. Having witnessed firsthand how the absence of rights shapes people’s daily lives, choices, and dignity, human rights matter to me both personally and academically. They offer a universal language to challenge injustice and defend those whose voices are too often silenced.”

This week’s voice in our #HumanRightsFAU series: PhD candidate Mareike Höcker. The whole story: www.humanrights.fau.eu/2025/12/08/h...
#HumanRightsFAU campaign. Quote by Phd candidate Mareike Höcker. Question: What is a misconception about human rights that you often encounter in public discussions? Answer: “A common misconception about human rights is that they apply uniformly across the globe, but in reality not all countries are bound by the same obligations. Additionally, states enjoy wide discretion in how they implement especially economic, social, and cultural rights. This makes it all the more compelling to study what core content must be uphold, even in the midst of conflict.”

In this week's contribution to our #HumanRightsFAU series: Doctoral Researcher Omri Levin reflects on why human rights matter to him personally. His research at the Chair of Human Rights Law focuses on Autocratisation in Israel.
@fau.de
#HumanRightsFAU Campaign: Contribution by Omri Levin: "Coming together as humans and deciding to end torture or discrimination for example, is one of the most noble projects humanity ever took upon itself. We should always remember it did not come for free or without a struggle, and be ready to defend human rights in our generation."

Nishrin Azzely Qowamuna, Doctoral Researcher, International Doctorate Programme „Business and Human Rights: Governance Challenges in a Complex World“ (IDP BHR), FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg. What inspired you to study and research human rights? „I was inspired to study human rights through my work in a non-profit organisation, where I met migrant workers who had experienced severe labour exploitation. Those encounters pushed me to question why these abuses persist and motivated me to understand the issue at a deeper level through research.“

This week’s voice in our #HumanRightsFAU series: FAU CHREN member & Postdoc Dr Tainá Garcia Maia. The whole story: www.humanrights.fau.eu/2025/12/08/h...
#HumanRightsFAU campaign. Quote by FAU CHREN member and Postdoc Dr. Tainá Garcia Maia. Question: What inspired you to research human rights? Answer: “At a time of contestation and backlash against international law, working for human rights becomes a collective and urgent task that requires awareness of the challenges we face, but also the strength not to lose hope. Human rights are not yet (and may never be) self-evident, but they can be fought for. As Nelson Mandela wrote, if hate can be learned, so too can love be taught.”

Our latest Brown Bag Lunch featured Milena Störmer discussing her joint study with Rim Bitar on human rights governance in post-conflict Syria.

It explores how human rights governance works when institutional and stakeholder foundations are absent/misaligned.
